Babyboi, or anyone else- Has anyone tried using these for our interior lights such as the front and back dome lights? Would they fit? Looks close...
Also Babyboi have you ran into any issues what-so-ever with the ones installed above the L. plate?
Thanks

FWIW, autolumination has posted circuited H6Ws that should not give you the "defective lamp" warning.
About a week ago i bought the circuited front, rear, and side signals from autolumination. Replacing more than one bulb on each side will give you the rapid flash rate, but will not give you a "defective lamp" warning. I decided not to bother with load resistors. I could not find a flasher relay, so replacing the relay was not an option for me. I just ordered the H6Ws and license plate LEDs to exchange for the signal LEDs I'm sending back.
You may run into the risk of burning your wires if you do not know what you are doing.
Almost all interior bulbs are 6418s. The plate bulbs are also 6418.'
But for the interior, I think you can use the cheaper LED bulbs that are not curcuited.

Guys! I am so sorry for not responding to my own thread lately. I haven't been clicking it. LoL.
Anyways...
as far as the LED License Plate LED Bulbs and the interior bulbs, such as the dome lights... yes, they're similar bulbs, the only difference is the length of each bulb. i don't exactly remember but i think the interior dome lights are slightly longer by a millimeter or two.
I still haven't had issues on my car with my LED license plate lights. Others have mentioned that they had problems since day one. so i guess it really all depends on how your car functions electrically and how you plan to deal with it. But as far as mine goes... so far so good. The same set of LED's since day one, and they STILL work great.
